I had the Rancher's Hash on the Sat/Sun brunch Menu. It was very good and the service was also quite good considering that the place was busy.

I rarely leave reviews for businesses, but I had to for this experience. This restaurant is truly a gem! This morning, we had the pancakes and rancher's hash, suggested by our server. Such great recommendations! A special shout-out to our server, Bryce--his attentiveness, friendly demeanor, and exceptional service made this experience even better. Truly a great restaurant and great staff! We'll definitely be back!

I hadn't been to Bethesda in a LONG time. But I was in the area and very much wanted to catch up with a good friend. Knowing that I was scouting the M in the DMV, she suggested we grab a bite at True Food Kitchen and I could have the added bonus of poking around the area and see how it suited me. Good plan. Walking in, I was surprised to find that the dining room is much larger than it appears from the outside (the windows and abundant natural light help with this). Despite arriving at peak dinner time, I was pleased to see that the place wasn't super packed. People's breath is deadly, folks. You have to choose wisely in these streets. I was approached by a very friendly server who walked me through the concept and menu. My friend was running late, so I order a strawberry margarita for me (perfect for late Spring) and a Tito's mule for her. Using my powers of timing, both drinks were delivered as my friend arrived and sat down. The marg was flavorful and strong. Even though I wasn't driving I decided I'd stick to one drink. Plus, True Food Kitchen is all about being healthy so... healthy it was. We started with the charred cauliflower. Being both vegan and gluten-free, it was an easy choice for our twosome. The date, tahini, dill, and pistachio combo ensured that we made quick work of it. I thought about being a gentleman and letting her get the bonus of the dish but then remembered that she's known me for [redacted] years and, thus, she KNOWS me and I went all in devouring the cruciferous concoction. Staying on the vegan and gluten-free tip, I chose the Korean noodle bowl (with chicken) for my main. I was very happy to receive a large portion of glass noodles, shiitake mushrooms, spinach, carrots, bean sprouts, and a nice amount of protein. Even better? The bowl was seasoned. The fear is that something like this could be bland (when not served from an ethnic origin). Nope! The chef was not afraid of flavor and my mouth approved. I wanted to finish the meal with the flourless chocolate cake but they were out. My loss was my friend's gain and she repaid my cauliflower greed with going all in on the cookies and ice cream. She enjoyed it. I side-eyed her. I see why TFK is RHOP-approved. If/when I lived in the DMV I could see having a shady lunch here myself. I just may have to. P.S. Not for nothing but the bathrooms were VERY clean. Like, noticeably so.

We love Tru Kitchen and especially this location! The servers are always cool and helpful with the selections. This time we tried their brunch menu. I had the Rancher's Hash while my husband had the tacos and pizza. Everything was so good and the right amount portion wise. Afterwards we had dessert which didn't disappoint either!

Excellent food but very pricy for what it is and not so filling. Service was great and there was plenty of available seating at a weekday lunch time. The salmon was perfectly cooked in the salad I tried. I just wish there had been more somehow for it to be a bit more filling!

The first thing I noticed right off the bat - besides the gorgeous interior - was the service of the host and waitstaff! Prakash had us settled in quickly and sold us on some of his favorite dishes - especially the sweet corn flatbread. It was delicious! He also recommended the drinks - I highly recommend the lavender matcha latte and any of the spritzers. My party of four ordered salads, pizza, and grain bowls and we were all very impressed! The chopped salad was a perfect meal on a hot day. The fresh fruit and nuts were great and the cheese complemented it perfectly! We also opted for guacamole for the table which was delicious; it took a unique approach with a pistachio pesto. It was great, and the tortilla chips were fresh and seasoned greatly. The prices were also fantastic for the area, and it's in a gorgeous part of Bethesda. This is a perfect stop for lunch!
